TPLE ultracapacitor cells power hand-held devices

Tecate has added new products to the Powerburst range of cylindrical, radial leaded ultracapacitor cells to provide pulse and hold-up power in hand-held and portable devices using microprocessors.

The TPLE series of Powerburst ultracapacitors is 100-per-cent RoHS compliant and offers an extended operating temperature up to 85C.

Capacitance values range from 5 to 100F.

Used to supplement – and in some cases replace – batteries, these electrochemical double-layer capacitors (EDLCs) offer low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) for high power and low loss during operation.

The lightweight, small-form-factor parts are maintenance-free, have an extended 85C operating temperature range and offer a high charge/discharge cycle life, along with high useable capacity.

These low-leakage current ultracapacitors charge quickly and safely, and deliver frequent energy pulses without harmful effects or reduced life.

The TPLE Series of general-purpose ultracapacitors may be specified for energy storage in a range of space-constrained applications.

They can be used in storage, battery packs, wireless communications, mobile computing and industrial applications.
